kent Posted June 29, 2013 Report Share Posted June 29, 2013 What worries me about this way is you frankly aint a clue if you have ruptured the stomach contents and or bladder, tainting and contaminating the meat. Besides it isn't much faster than watering it out with a thumb press, a quick cut and then a sharp flick holding the legs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaz6br Posted June 29, 2013 Report Share Posted June 29, 2013 Don't think that would work for us, when we go rabbiting there's normally 3 of us, one driving the kobota, one lamping and one shooting. Then at the end of the night when we gut the rabbits one squeezes the pee out one slices it open and the other removes the guts. We can do 80 plus rabbits no time at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garyw Posted June 29, 2013 Report Share Posted June 29, 2013 i have tried that method and you do get a few internal bursts depending where fluffy has been hit. the old way is the best -open up the stomach from chest to groin and get your fingers behind the stomach and remove the internals.

I've tried this method a few times and had a few internal bursts, I think it works best as soon as the rabbits shot, if they are allowed to cool for an hour or so it doesn't work as well, like Gary says the old way is best, it may take a little longer but a few extra seconds to get a neater job are well spent especially if you sell your rabbits.

Try the "quick flick" the fast speed up and abrupt stop precludes putting your fingers in behind the stomach via inertia. It takes a bit of practice like using kinetic hammers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kent Posted July 1, 2013 Report Share Posted July 1, 2013 works a treat only down side I found was liver tended to go as well making it hard to check for fluke etc. Liver fluke doesn't condemn the carcass, if its gone its gone- unlike contamination through putting dirty fingers inside. Yeah, it does shoot out sometimes but I only keep an odd few livers. Its getting hard to get quality Liver at present other than from calf, so I assume fluke is very prevalent currently Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stillair1 Posted May 8, 2014 Report Share Posted May 8, 2014 I've tried the push gutting method and eventually got it to work, but not before turning a funny colour several times, whilst been barracked by my shooting pal. This ten stone weakling has gone back to the old way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DW58 Posted May 8, 2014 Report Share Posted May 8, 2014 That is unbelievably awful - no way would I ever employ such a gutting technique. I wonder if Buster Braincell in the video jumps on Muntjac rather than gralloching them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Al Posted May 9, 2014 Report Share Posted May 9, 2014 With a bit of practise this method works very well, I cant remember ever rupturing any internals and its a very clean way to empty the occassional freshly shot rabbit. I use this method when Im out for a walk and only plan to shoot a few. The downside to the method is that when the rabbit has cooled down it takes considerably more effort to do, equally if you have a lot of rabbits and a mate it is quicker if one slits while the other empties the cavity. I certainly wouldnt fancy the prospect of push gutting even 20 cooled down rabbits let alone 100's, you would need forearms like Popeye, anchor oiptional .

JB1 Posted May 9, 2014 Report Share Posted May 9, 2014 Been chuckling to myself reading this I have visions of shooters up and down the country suffering from hernias, red faced and blood shot eyes with a rabbit in their fists dropping there last rabbit currants. I'm a plain simple flinger a quick shallow cut and wang away towards your lamper. Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
old man ken Posted May 11, 2014 Report Share Posted May 11, 2014 Not for me! Personally like to inspect the carcass properly, just an old man thing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1967spud Posted May 11, 2014 Report Share Posted May 11, 2014 luckily ill get a £1 each for mine and they must have the guts in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Al Posted May 12, 2014 Report Share Posted May 12, 2014 luckily ill get a £1 each for mine and they must have the guts in I get £1.50 for head shot without the guts, can I ask why they want them with the guts still in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DW58 Posted May 12, 2014 Report Share Posted May 12, 2014 I was wondering the same. There again, years ago I used to sell white hares to the local game dealer and he wanted them guts in which is how his Italian buyer wanted them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
